Collegiate Church of San Miguel
Ampudia
POI

Its imposing bell tower stands out over the village. It is 63 meters high and its construction was planned in 1509 thanks to the initiative of Fray Pascual de Ampudia, bishop of Burgos; from 1540 work was done on the upper lantern with contributions from Juan de Escalante and Gaspar de Solórzano. The temple has three naves separated by semicircular arches and covered by star-shaped vaults. There are Romanesque (base of the tower), Renaissance (the most lavish) and Gothic elements, with a graceful harmony of pinnacles and chamfers. And in its interior, images, reliefs, gold work and Renaissance, Plateresque and Baroque altarpieces; chapels of Santa Ana and San Ildefonso (XVI century), main altarpiece (XVII century) and Baroque organ (XVIII century) by Tadeo Ortega.
